(The Next Day)
(Down the hotel Lobby)
"Where does the ferry pick up?" asked Katie to Brady.
"The ferry picks up in Grand Haven" said Brady.
"How are we suppose to get there?" asked Katie.
"We have to take the bus to Grand Haven " said Brady.
They check out of the hotel and started walking towards the bus depot.
"Which bus do we take?" asked Emma.
"Well we take bus number 45 which will take us from here to Grand Haven in 40 minutes from when the bus leaves" said Brady.
They keep moving through town not stopping till they got to the bus depot.
(In the Bus Depot.)
"We are looking for bus 45" said Brady.
They walk over the to the ticket station.
"Excuse me mam" said Brady.
"How can I help you guys" said the lady.
"We are looking for bus 45 and where it picks up?' asked Brady.
"It picks up in area B in about 10 minutes" said the lady.
"Can we buy three ticket here?" asked Brady.
"Yeah you can do you want them?" asked the lady.
"Yeah we would" said Brady.
He then pays her for the 3 tickets then walks over to area B.
"Hey how about a little battle while we wait for the bus" said Emma.
"Yeah" said Katie.
"You two can I will ref" said Brady.
"Ok we will make this a 3 on 3" said Katie.
(Battle Katie vs. Emma)
"Go Ducklett" said Emma. "Go Poliwag" said Katie. This battle can go on right now" said Brady.
"Ducklett use Aerial Ace."
"Dodge it Poliwag and use Body slam." While the Ducklett came at Poliwag. He dodged Ducklett's attack and used body slam on Ducklett. The Ducklett hits the ground.
"Poliwag now use bubblebeam." The bubblebeam hits the grounded Ducklett.
"Ducklett get back into the air." The Ducklett gets off the ground and gets back into the air.
"Ducklett use water gun."
"Dodge it Poliwag." Rather then dodging it Poliwag used a new move known as icy wind. The icy wind freezes the water gun. Then the frozen water gun drops from the air and shatters on the ground.
"Try icy wind again Poliwag."
"Ducklett dodge it and use Aerial Ace. The Aerial Ace hits Poliwag and knocks him off his feet.
"Use water pulse on Poliwag."
"Poliwag you use icy wind." The icy wind stops the water pulse and freezes Ducklett's legs. Ducklett then hits the ground. "Ducklett can you fly up right now" said Emma. Ducklett tries using peck to break the ice on her feet.
"Use Icy wind one more time Poliwag." The icy wind then freezes the rest of the Ducklett.
"Ducklett is unable to battle due to being frozen Poliwag wins. "Return Ducklett and Go Herdier" said Emma. "You also return Poliwag and go Eevee" said Katie.
"Herdier use take down."
"Use dig to dodge it Eevee." The Eevee dodged the attack and popped up behind Herdier.
"Use tackle Eevee." The tackle hit Herdier.
"Herdier use take down" While the Eevee used tackle Herdier countered the attack and sent the Eevee back and knocked him out.
"Eevee is unable to battle Herdier wins." said Brady. "One more pokemon for each of us" said Emma. "Yep" said Katie. "So return Herdier and go Combusken" said Emma. "Return Eevee and go Servine" said Katie.
"Servine use leaf tornado."
"Use fire spin to stop that attack." The fire spin burned through the leaves and hits Servine.
"Servine can you continue." Then Servine got and was ready to continue.
"Combusken use ember."
"Dodge it and use leaf blade." The leaf blade hits Combusken. The Combusken dropped to one knee but got up right away. "Your Combusken is on its way to becoming really good" said Katie. "Yeah same with your Servine" said Emma. "I am going to win this though" said Katie. "No I am" said Emma.
"Combusken use fire spin."
Dodge it Servine and use leaf blade." The leaf blade hits Combusken and knocks him down to one knee.
"Now Servine use leaf tornado." The leaf tornado sent Combusken in to a bench behind the battle area.
"Combusken is unable to battle Servine wins, Katie is the winner" said Brady. "Yeah I finally won against my sister" said Katie. "Good job Katie" said Emma. "Well it looks like the bus here" said Brady as the bus pulls up.
(On the way to Grand Haven)
"This bus is to Grand Haven Ferry Center. All abroad whos coming" said the bus driver.
The three board the bus and find three seats on the bus.
"This will be a 40 minute drive and there will no stops till we get to Grand Haven so lets get going" said the bus driver.
As the bus was driving the three were all looking out of the window.
"Hey look its a Swablu" said Emma pointing at a tree.
"Yeah that is one thats cool" said Katie.
They were interrupted by the bus driver. "We are going to be delayed due to a Swasbuck in the middle of the road . We have to wait till it moves so please be patient. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. Thank you." said the bus driver.
"Its the autumn form" said Brady looking at it.
The bus driver pulls over to the side of the road. The Swasbuck just stood there waiting for something. Then two Deerling come to the Swasbuck in the middle.
"Well its a mother" said Katie.
The three of them started from moving from the middle of the street.
"Well it looks like they are moving so we can get back to going to Grand Haven.
"So return to your seats so we can leave" said the bus driver.
After an hour and 30 minute delay they finally made it to Grand Haven. The bus came to a stop at the Grand Haven Ferry Center and people got off and walked into the ferry boarding area.
"We are looking for the S.S Turn Pike" said Brady.
They find it getting ready to take passengers.
"Well lets go go then" said Brady as they boarded the ferry.
(On the Ferry)
"This will be a 5 hour ferry ride so lets go find a seat" said Brady.
"So what are we going to do?" asked Emma. "I know what I am doing" said Katie as she left.
"Where are you going?" asked Emma. "I am going to get a better view of the lake from the outside" said Katie. She leaves only leaving Emma and Brady in the sitting area.
"What are you going to do?" asked Brady.
"I do not know what about you?" asked Emma.
"Well there is a movie playing down one level do you wanna go check it out with me" said Brady.
"Yeah sure I will go with you" said Emma.
(Outside the boat with Katie)
I keep remembering what Joe said about the lake spirits. I would like to see one at this lake. I wonder if Azelf is here. She ends up sitting down and just looking at the lake. She continues to look as the rest of the people go inside. She then looks up for a minute and back at the lake then she sees a ghost looking spirit. She looks closely and even more. Hey I think that is Azelf. That is really cool. Azelf looks at her then flies closer to her and smiles then flies into the sky. She walks back over to where Emma and Brady were sitting.
(Back at the sitting area)
"Hey you two I saw Azelf" said Katie.
"You did not" said Emma doubting Katie as she said it.
"I did I know I did" said Katie looking at the other two.
"Where did you see him?" asked Brady.
"When I was sitting outside I looked up at the sky then back down at the lake then I saw Azelf well not Azelf more as the spirit of Azelf" said Katie. "Ok" said Emma.
"I guess you may have saw it I do not know but if you did that had to be cool" said Brady.
"What did you two did?" asked Katie.
"Well we went to the movies and then went to dinner" said Brady.
"Is there something between you two?" asked Katie.
They just looked at each other and smiled.
"I do not know if that is an answer or what." said Katie a little frustrated at the response from them two.
Again they did not say a word. "Come on saw something please" said Katie mad for getting no response.
"Well me and Emma are going to dinner so stay here and watch our seat" said Brady.
"Bring me back something" said Katie.
"Ok" said Emma as they left.
(Dinner with Emma and Brady)
"Do you believe what Katie said" asked Brady.
"Well we have been spending a lot of time with each other" said Emma.
"We have but we are just friends" said Brady.
"I do not know what the future hold for us but right now I do know what I like" said Emma thinking about her and Brady.
"What is that?" asked Brady.
"Just wait and see" said Emma.
Their food arrives at their table. "Who had the Chicken Florentine" said the waiter.
"That would be me" said Emma.
"Then you must of had this" said the waiter handing Brady a plate.
They ate and walked over to the dessert area.
"What do you want?" asked Brady.
"Well I will have some cheesecake" said Emma grabbing a plate of it.
"I will have some of that too" said Brady also grabbing a plate of it.
They finish eating desert and walk back to Katie who fell asleep waiting.
"Katie wake up" said Emma.
"Oh I am a wake now" said Katie.
"Here is the food you asked for" said Emma handing Katie a Styrofoam container full of her food.
"Thanks" said Katie starting to eat.
"We are approaching Chicago so please be ready we will be stopping in a few minutes" said Brady.
(After making it to Chicago)
"Well its about 6pm so lets go check into our hotel and listen to Talkin with Robin Malcolm" said Brady.
"Ok this is a big town" said Emma.
"The hotel is across the street from the gym so in a few days we will go to the gym" said Brady.
They make it to the hotel. "Well lets listen to Talkin with Robin Malcolm down in the lobby. They check in and go to their rooms.
"Before we go listen we should check out the gym location" said Brady.
They walk out of the hotel and walk across the street.
"There's a sign on the door" said Emma looking at it
The sign says: Left out of town be back in a week. Thanks for your patience Lilly.
"Now we should back to the hotel" said Brady.
They walk back to the lobby and sit down in the chairs.

"So my first question is how did you mange to win that last contest battle?" asked Robin.
"Well for starters it was difficult to beat the runner up from last years Grand Festival. But when I saw that timer strike zero and I was ahead I was so happy" said Jenna.
